Sat Feb 18 23:07:55 EST 1995 Starting with 2.15.6, gawk will preserve the value of NF and $0 for the last record read into the END rule(s). This is important to you if your program uses print in an END rule to mean print "" (i.e., print nothing). Examine your awk programs carefully to make sure that they use `print ""' instead of `print', otherwise you will get strange results. If you send me email about this, without having read this file, I will yell at you. Arnold Robbins arnold@gnu.ai.mit.edu
